Now that he's bluntly owned up to his past behavior in his romantic relationships, John Mayer is ready to move toward something more ... well, human, in his words.

Although the 35-year-old is dating Katy Perry, their courtship feels like less tabloid fodder and more like an everyday romance.

"I don't feel like I'm in a celebrity relationship. For the first time in my life I don't feel like I'm in a celebrity relationship," Mayer told "CBS Sunday Morning" this weekend. "I really don't."

Just because it "feels" that way doesn't mean that the cameras are any less attentive when the pair show up at, say, the Grammy Awards.

"I'm not denying it," the "Shadow Days" singer said of the draw the press has to his partnership with Perry, who was previously married to Russell Brand. "I'm saying that for me it feels like something that is very human."

When it comes to marriage, Mayer hasn't ruled out the possibility.

"Of course," he told CBS. "I mean, I'm still the kid from Connecticut. That's what you do."

katy i heard your new song for the first time "im wide awake" and i mean i actually heard the message your trying to get out and it brought tears to my eyes and im a 28yo m. I pray that you stay safe now that your out of the illuminati they are going to try to trash your charecter or even kill you. The devil makes things look easy and very tempting becuase well hes the devil but we all know what he offers is a lie and at the end you loose your soul. You have such a beautiful voice and are very beautiful this is why the illumanti wants you to worship them and harvest souls for them but you are much bigger then that and you can make it on your own. Things might get tough from this point on but keep moving forward were praying for you Katy God bless you.

Katy, you are intelligent, amazing, talented, and beautiful....that's what you are known for. Please think carefully what he is known for...besides his barely okay music. Is that really what you deserve?
